noisy rattle, cause?? Options

[Crzybakerdog]

ok another problem so everytime i go over a little bumb my car makes that nosie that maby the spare isn't tightened enough or something similar. well i set off to tighten it down and found out that the wheel was put on wrong last time it was used so i tightened it and thought hey great now i can drive without that noise anymore but i dont think helped much because i can still hear that clunking sound evertime i go over a bumb, big or small. Anyone else have this problem as well?? solutions??

Check the jack hidden in the trunk on the right side inside the hidden compartment, expand the jack into its holder spot I had the same problem

yeah i have this same problem too! its so annoying- and ive removed my spare and my jack- not these... Ive been told it might be a sway bar bushing thats worn out, but im not positive on this. Yeah if anybody does know what this is it would be GREATLY appreciated if you could tell us how to fix this...

have you modded your suspension in anyway? often times the sway bar linkages get stripped and can't be tightened all the way. this caueses play which results in rattle. this wouldn't happen more than likely unless you had unscrewed that at any point.

well i checked and its not the tire anymore and the jack is very secure inside its compartment and i havent done anything to lower car either due to snow and what not so now i really dont know what it could be but that sound only affects me when others are in the car and i have the music turned down so they dont complain about how loud it is. but ya ill keep looking for things that might cause the problem.

I have the same problem, a loud annoying rattle

i checked my jack and it wasnt that and im sure its not the spare

it sounds like its coming from the back but kinda high, like theres marbles in the trunk or in the plastic peice surrounding the rear speakjers or something
